Cranial Electrical StimulationComplementary & Alternative Medicine

US FDA CES technology-based devices are the hope of the future. Many big brands are investing in sleep devices and probability of startups joining the trend cannot be denied. These devices are perfectly safe alternative for sleeping pills at a minimal cost. This makes them more in-demand. NishCalm is Johari’s CES based device which has created major stir in the market since its launch.

Let’s dig deeper to find out the illusions & facts that testimonies benefit of CES.

  • CES (Cranial Electrical Stimulation) is a potential alternative energy treatment for old-aged individuals, working professionals, frequent travelers and so on. Specially individuals suffering from sleep problems due to prior health conditions.
  • CES is known to affect the limbic system of the brain. Predominantly, including cingulated cortex, hypothalamus, thalamus, and/or reticular activating system. Lower currents of 500 microamperes increase the ATP formation while higher currents of more than 5 milli ampere present a decrease in ATP level. An experiment conducted to study the effect of CES reveals 3 folds boost in endorphin production. The increment in the level of serotonin, Beta- endorphins, Nor-epinephrine causes alleviation of sleep disturbances.
